Leigh Mitchell has always done what everyone expects of her. When her parents were killed in an accident, her older brother looked after her, helping her become the local sheriff of their hometown, Glens Crossing. Yet Leigh is beginning to grow restless - she's approaching 30 and wants to break out of her "old Leigh" existence and become the "new Leigh". So when a sexy stranger waltzes into tow, one moonlit night and asks her to ride the Ferris wheel, she takes a leap of faith. Soon she is falling for the handsome man who's full of secrets. But when a young girl goes missing and Will becomes a primary suspect, Leigh's newfound independence is tested.

Excellent Read! Couldn't tell it was a debut

Format:Mass Market Paperback
I read this in one sitting. Will Scott. Leigh Mitchell. Both were very believable characters. Sub-characters were lacking, but not enough to detract from the beauty of the story.
Will is on the run. He is hurting. He is real. He chooses the right, based on the information that he has.
Leigh is on the verge of becoming. She is good, solid, and mature.
They are good for each other. Strong enough to love, protect, and support one another. Mature enough to stand alone when need be.
I will definitely read Ms. Crandall's next offering: The Road Home.

GREAT first book

I really enjoyed this book. It kept my interest all the way through the book. I ordered her other books but I am not that big of a fan for sequel books. But we shall see. Leigh was a 3D character, that you found yourself holding your breath that she would come out on top. Same with Will Scott. I believe that you will enjoy this book.

Back Roads is an amazing debut novel by Susan Crandall.

Will Scott has returned to a place that had brought him happiness as a child. He is just passing through until he sees Leigh. Will has secrets he cannot share but finds himself wanting to share everything with Leigh.
A crime is committed and the new man in town is the target of the gossip. Leigh is torn between what her heart knows and her job.
Back Roads tells a tale of fighting for what you believe in and taking a stand. You can really feel the conflict and the passions that these characters are dealing with all through the book. It's a must read.
